The CLAT 2025 result hearing will now be held on May 7, 2025. A bench of Justices BR Gavai and KV Viswanathan could not take up the CLAT UG matter today as it was scheduled to hear another matter afternoon, and will hear the petition tomorrow. Today, the court was informed that another candidate has also filed petition, challenging the Division Bench's judgement. "We had challenged three questions. One was allowed by the single bench, but the division bench reversed it. The Consortium had acceded to the question being wrong," the counsel said, requesting that the new Special Leave Petition be also listed tomorrow.

A candidate who attempted Set A and secured All India Rank 22 filed the SLP in the Supeme Court. She claimed that the High Court's ruling created an unfair disadvantage for candidates with the A Set Question Paper compared to those with the B, C, and D sets, thereby undermining the petitioner's right to a fair and balanced competition. On April 30, the Supreme Court stayed the Delhi High Court order asking the Consortium of National Law Universities to revise the marksheets and republish the final list of selected candidates in the answers to 4 questions in the CLAT 2025 answer key within four weeks. Read the article to find out the latest updates on the CLAT UG 2025 SC hearing. The Delhi HC has postponed the CLAT PG hearing, which is now scheduled to be held on May 26, 2025.

Cases in CLAT UG 2025
A bench comprising Justices BR Gavai and AG Masih issued a stay order while hearing a Special Leave Petition (SLP) challenging the Delhi High Court's decision on April 23. The High Court identified errors in four questions across the B, C, and D sets of CLAT 2025, directing that affected candidates' marks and the merit list be revised within four weeks. However, the court did not grant the same advantage to students who had sat for the A set, declaring that it was error-free. A candidate who attempted the A set and obtained an All India Rank of 22 in CLAT 2025 is the petitioner who filed the SLP.

What’s next for candidates?
The delay in releasing the revised CLAT 2025 results will continue as the Supreme Court has deferred its hearing to May 6, 2025. The Consortium of NLUs will resume the CLAT 2025 counselling process only after all the related matters are settled. Earlier, the apex court had stayed the Delhi HC judgement on CLAT UG cases following a candidate’s appeal.
